Update Notes: v1.4.3 [beta]

Z. Year One · published

Hello everyone! v1.4.3 just dropped on the beta branch!

How to access Beta builds on Steam:


1. Right-click Z. Year One in your Steam Library
2. Select Properties
3. Select the Betas tab
4. Enable the "beta - Update beta branch" option from the drop-down menu

Updated Card Frames


The “card frames” have been updated for all cards. Aside from some slight font changes, the Card Name font color has been color-coded to the Card Type (Survivors = Blue, Fallen = Red, Equipment = White, and Location = Orange/Brown).

Additionally, you can fully customize this two-tone font color by clicking the new option we’ve added to the main menu. This (along with unit twitching settings) will be moved to a different area of the Config menu once the overall menu system is updated.

The default colors are decent, but please report if you’re having trouble reading any of the cards now. Please keep in mind that the minimum recommended resolution for playing Z. is 1080p.

What’s Next?


I wanted to get this update out quickly as the next update may be a while. We’re tearing apart some stuff under the hood, so much so that you may not even recognize the game the next time we update. Stay tuned! :KittenCannon:
